摘要
This work describes experiences in geocoding health data in Brazilian municipalities, analyzed according to the availability and update of cartographic databases and the treatment given to addresses data in health information systems (SIS). The diversity of current geocoding strategies in Brazil results of local conditions on which these projects are developed, presenting variable efficiency and accuracy for health event location. The authors suggest strategies to capture and store addresses data in SIS, compatible with the existent street registries, as well as the development of programs and scripts to search and link these two databases.
